IS FREE TO DOWNLOAD AND MUST HAVE WITH YOU ON THE PARADE ROUTE, SO MAKE SURE YOU DOWNLOAD IT. LAST WEEKEND WE TRACKED 18 PARADES FRIDAY, SATURDAY AND SUNDAY. IT’S A HERCULEAN TASK, BUT WE DO IT FOR YOU HERE AT WDSU. I’M SHOWING YOU THE CAUSEWAY BECAUSE ON AN AFTERNOON LIKE THIS, THERE’S NO BETTER DRIVE THAN THE CAUSEWAY. SKIES ARE CLEAR, EVERYTHING’S GREAT. HOWEVER, WHEN IT’S FOGGY, THE CAUSEWAY. NOT SUCH A FUN DRIVE, AND I THINK THAT’S GOING TO BE THE CASE FOR US FIRST THING TOMORROW MORNING. DENSE FOG ADVISORY GOES INTO EFFECT AT 10:00 TONIGHT. IT’S IN EFFECT UNTIL 9:00 TUESDAY MORNING, RIGHT AROUND SUNRISE. THAT’S WHEN IT’S LIKELY GOING TO BE THE FOGGIEST. AND IT AFFECTS ALL OF OUR PARISHES AND THIS COMPUTER MODEL. AND I THINK IT’S PRETTY ACCURATE, SHOWS THAT THE FOG IS GOING TO DEVELOP PRETTY QUICKLY FOR US ONCE WE GET TO THE MID PORTION OF THE MORNING AND VISIBILITY ACCORDING TO THIS MODEL, COULD BE CLOSE TO ZERO IN A LOT OF LOCATIONS. MAKE SURE TO WATCH METEOROLOGISTS RAVEN RICHARD STARTING AT 430 TOMORROW MORNING RIGHT HERE ON WDSU. SHE’S ALWAYS CHECKING THE LIVE CAMERAS AND THE VISIBILITY. SHE’LL TELL YOU WHERE IT’S GOING TO BE THE FOGGIEST, BUT ACROSS THE BOARD, I THINK EVERYONE SHOULD PLAN ON THE POSSIBILITY OF FOG. NOT ONLY TOMORROW, BUT WEDNESDAY, THURSDAY, FRIDAY AS WELL. BUT LET’S TALK ABOUT THE BEAUTIFUL WEATHER WE’RE SEEING RIGHT NOW. 76 AT THE AIRPORT, 74 BOGALUSA LITTLE COOLER IF YOU’RE CLOSER TO THE WATER. 65 OUR CURRENT TEMPERATURE RIGHT NOW, GRAND ISLE WINDS GENERALLY FROM THE SOUTH AT ABOUT 8 TO 10, EVEN 12MPH. BUT BY TOMORROW MORNING, THOSE WINDS ARE GOING TO BE LIGHTER AND ALL THE CONDITIONS ARE GOING TO BE HERE FOR IT TO BE FOGGY. SOUTHWESTERLY WINDS AT SEVEN RIGHT NOW OFFICIALLY AT THE AIRPORT, DEW POINT AT 55. OUR MORNING TEMPERATURES ARE GOING TO BE IN THE MID TO UPPER 50S. SO THAT DEW POINT TEMPERATURE GOING TO BE CLOSE TO EQUAL FIRST THING TOMORROW MORNING, AND HUMIDITY OBVIOUSLY CLOSE TO 100%. A LITTLE BIT OF CLOUD COVER TODAY. WE’LL SEE A LITTLE MORE CLOUD COVER TOMORROW AFTERNOON. BUT IT’S HIGH PRESSURE IN THE GULF THAT KIND OF CONTROLS OUR WEATHER FOR THE SHORT TERM. A LITTLE DISTURBANCE MAY BRING US A LITTLE BIT OF RAIN ON WEDNESDAY. LET’S TAKE A LOOK AT OUR FORECAST FOR TONIGHT EVENING CONSTITUTIONAL HERE ABOUT 8:00. JUST ABOUT PERFECT TEMPERATURES CLOSE TO 60 DEGREES EVERYWHERE. THIS MODEL, THE ONE THAT I SHOWED YOU AT THE BEGINNING OF THE REPORT, NOT PICKING UP ON RAIN, BUT PICKING UP ON A VERY SATURATED ATMOSPHERE, PICKING UP ON WHAT IS LIKELY TO BE A VERY FOGGY START FOR YOUR TUESDAY MORNING. ONCE THE FOG IS GONE, BY MID-MORNING, IT WILL BE A PARTLY CLOUDY AFTERNOON, HIGH TEMPERATURE, MAYBE A DEGREE OR TWO WARMER THAN TODAY. MID 70S IN A LOT OF SPOTS. NOW HERE COMES THE DISTURBANCE ON WEDNESDAY BRINGS US A LITTLE MORE CLOUD COVER. WE’RE GOING TO START FOGGY AGAIN ON WEDNESDAY, BUT THEN IN THE AFTERNOON, MAYBE A COUPLE OF SHOWERS, BUT THE CHANCE FOR RAIN ONLY 20%. HERE’S A BETTER CHANCE FOR RAIN. AND THE TIMING ON THIS FRONT I THINK IS PRETTY GOOD. LET’S GO THROUGH YOUR WEEKEND. HERE WE ARE SATURDAY EVENING, 6 P.M. STILL DRY. LOOKING GOOD. MIDNIGHT STILL MAINLY DRY. SO IT LOOKS LIKE OUR BEST CHANCE FOR RAIN COMING LATE SATURDAY THROUGH THE EARLY MORNING HOURS ON SUNDAY. HERE WE ARE AT ABOUT 6 A.M. ON SUNDAY, WAKING UP SOME RAIN, BUT IT LOOKS LIKE THAT RAIN IS GOING TO BE LEAVING US BY THE MID AND LATE MORNING. BEHIND THAT FRONT IT GETS A LITTLE BIT COOLER BUT NOT COLDER. DENSE FOG ADVISORY IN EFFECT TONIGHT. WE’LL START THE MORNING IN THE 50S. TOMORROW MORNING, ONCE THE FOG IS GONE, IT WILL BE A PARTLY SUNNY, WARM, VERY PLEASANT DAY, 73 TO 76 FOR THE AFTERNOON HIGH. AND REALLY WE’RE JUST GOING TO KIND OF DO IT AGAIN ALL THE WAY THROUGH FRIDAY MORNING FOG, VERY PLEASANT AFTERNOONS WITH THAT SMALL CHANCE FOR SHOWERS ON WEDNESDAY OVER THE WEEKEND I SHOWED YOU IT LOOKS LIKE MOST OF THE RAIN SHOULD BE FALLING DURING THE OVERNIGHT HOURS, AND WE DO GET A LITTLE BIT COOLER BY THE BEGINNING OF NEXT WEEK. LUNDI GRAS MARDI GRAS. TEMPERATURES IN THE 70S SHOULD STILL BE VERY COMFORTABLE AND NO CHANCE FOR R
